One of our prime opportunities to add a principled limited government constitutional conservative to the ranks of conservatives in Congress is the open seat in West Virginia’s Congressional District 2 where conservative Alex Mooney is leading a crowded field of contenders in the Republican Primary.

Repub. Ken Cuccinelli has more to offer libertarians than opponent Rob Sarvis. Libertarians Ron and Rand Paul have both endorsed Cuccinelli. Libertarian Tim Carney wrote that Cuccinelli “would arguably be the most libertarian governor in the US if he wins,” a point that contrasts sharply with the libertarians' attacks.

Chris McDaniel, whom The Club for Growth described as “a constitutional conservative with backbone,” has now garnered two important endorsements and is doing a great job defining himself as the conservative alternative to 40-year incumbent establishment Republican Senator Thad Cochran of Mississippi.
